Dude your enthusiasm, wonder, and joy at making sounds is fantastic!

@dzmo-official 18 дней назад

I totally agree, man

@kitschbreeder8546 11 дней назад

seriously

@SomeMaxiboy 11 месяцев назад

Man your reaction to your own chords at 2:57 was so honest and sincere that that by itself made me hit the subscribe button. I totally vibed with that instantanious kind of "look what I found in my creation" like you have something pre-existing inside yourself that only needs to be looked up, or found. Cool moment 🥰 Cherish these moments.

@Baywood Год назад

All I gotta say is your coaching program changed my life and turned music into a full time career for me... and then you post these incredibly inspiring tutorials that feel like Christmas every time I watch! I get so inspired and creative with every vid!! Here before a million views!

@Avinix Год назад

I wish I had this video when I started producing almost 6 year ago. This is too perfect. I can't even explain the feelings I get when I listen to those sweet sine pluck synth chords.

@RisetotheBottom00 Год назад

You have a knack for simplifying the whole process of music production

@trphousevo Год назад

and i love it

@JonoTheVoiceofAustralia Год назад

Such a good succinct tutorial, showing you how to make beautiful sounds quickly and effectively. Thanks Alex!

@seckinaktunc Год назад

The thing I enjoy most about watching videos is your enthusiasm. I love the way you say the word "HEAVEN", lol. That's how I know that you really dig whatever you are doing in that moment.

@augusteghislaindupin Год назад

you're so good. I have no words. I'd love to have just a 1/10 of your knowledge and hear. I bow to you.

@danic.3760 Год назад

More or less I already knew all these tricks except for the atmosphere one, that was magic, with the unison and the massive reverb 1 note sounds like a full chord. Nice work as always.

@brianinfante9757 10 месяцев назад

WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UNISON AND THE FULL CHORD?

@janjezek9333 Год назад

How did you always make these heart touching melodies? Is this intuition, voicings, sold-your-soul magic, mathematics, or behind the scene trial and error? (Or all of them?) Please make some videos of these, this is (one of) your strengths 🤩

@fmaylinch Год назад

After spending a lot of time and money in courses, I think that this is something very difficult to explain. Or I am a bad student :) Anyway, I think that Rome tends to omit the why, and just shows the how. Maybe he just doesn't know, and he learnt by practice and intuition like, I suspect, most do. I think that Rome sometimes knows the why but he doesn't explain it, maybe because the videos would be too complex, boring and long, or just because he wants to save those tips for his paid students. But beware. As I said, I've paid some courses, and most of that money has been wasted. Now I don't pay anymore until I see proof that I will learn something useful.

@Sky_666 Год назад

He tends to use minor scales a lot, plus it's something you can learn from his other tutorials on chord construction, after watching many of his videos I can say that I now make better chords with similar vibes to the ones he creates.

@AlexRome Год назад

Haha thanks! That’s a huge compliment. It’s a bit of everything you mentioned. There is some bit of trial and error you don’t see in preparation for each video. For example, sometimes I’ll write 5 to 10 melodies in search for a good melody to use in a video and it takes me multiple days to find one. Sometimes (like in the video above) I’ll write a single melody and get lucky. I should definitely make a video on this. It would be a fun video that I think would be creatively inspiring.

@fmaylinch Год назад

@@Sky_666 yep, minor scales are very common in electronic music.

@fmaylinch Год назад

@@AlexRome that would be really useful; how you do that trial and error.

@alenparismusic Год назад

I know many professors who pompously play the role of producer teachers, but have no taste in music. You are the only one with excellent musical taste, who subtly feels and really understands music. I'm not used to just praising anyone, so don't take my words as a compliment.

@peteclose Год назад

Dude. Your progressions always give me major feels. Respect. 🙌🏻

@joriksson Год назад

Right after this video I twicked my current project with a new bassline synth. This is exactly the sound I've been loking for, thanks! The previous bass preset used the envelope mostly on the on the osc volume, but with the filter it works much better, leaving the base note sounding constantly in sub-bass range

@synthoelectro Год назад

This is what I do when making electronic music over the years when making laying in MIDI when composing. You're essentially creating space which helps greatly when mixing, as freqs are not hogging the mix. This video is highly impressive.

@markqualter5016 Год назад

@GlitchmanVGM Год назад

The atmosphere tip with the sine wave reverb ducking was very clever! I'm definitely gonna use that one! Thanks for this awesome video! I added this to my favorites. 😃👍

@CaptainVelveeta Год назад

One of the things I appreciate about your mixing is when you find something 'good' you use it. I have a bad habit of finding a great sound and then saying, "that's good but I'm gonna see if I can find something better" MAN!😖 I waste so much time just looking for 'better' when what I have is more than sufficient.

Criminally underrated video to be honest. Had to comment again cause I love it so much

@michaelschmitt3739 Год назад

Awesome mix from scratch in literally seconds. Love the final tracks all put together as well. You mentioned "Ducking". What is that? I love the effect it had on the Bass line. smooth.

@NowaboMusic 11 месяцев назад

Ducking is also called sidechaining. When you sidechain an instrument track to another track (usually the bass drum), the instrument will get quieter whenever the drum hits.

@SayyyyyWhat Год назад

@AlexRome Год назад

In the meantime, you can use Logic's built-in synth called Alchemy. Alchemy can make these sounds just as effectively.

@gnuwaves743 Год назад

geez I really need to utilize Serum. relying on plugins has been cool but I can never find the 'right' sound and searching through preset packs and libraries just takes away from my music time. Plus making your own sounds (almost) ensures you don't sound like anyone else. same destination, different path to get their.

@ghostplayermusic Год назад

After following along with a few serum tutorials to get down some of the basic features, you can start experimenting and figuring out what types of sounds you like and how to make them
